Terrain & conditions
22.1 km
Distance
About 22 km one way is typically a full day on foot for many hikers (roughly 5–8 hours including breaks at Annalan laavu, Kihniönkylän Erä-Veikkojen maja, and Toivosen laavu), or roughly half that on a mountain bike on dry trails; adjust for snow when skiing the parallel track.
Est. Time
Mixed forest paths, local roads, and recreation connectors typical of the Geopark plateau; expect dirt and gravel with roots in places. Short sections can stay wet after rain on the separate summit nature loop.
